1351. It was narrated that Zaid bin Thâbit said: "They were commanded to say the Tasbih thirty-three times following the prayer, and to say the Tahmîd thirty-three times, and to say the Takbîr thirty-four times, then a man from among the Anshâr was told in a dream: 'Did the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ command you to say the Tasbih thirty-three times following the prayer, and to say the Tahmîd thirty-three times,
and to say the Takbîr[1] thirty-four times? He said: 'Yes.' Instead of that, say each one twenty-five times, and include the Tahlîl[2] among them.' The next morning he came to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and told him about that, and he said: 'Do that.'" (Hasan)

Commentary
A dream cannot be considered a conclusive proof, because there is no certainty whether it is from Allâh, Most High, or from Satan, or it is merely a product of one's imagination. However, after its authentication by the Prophet ﷺ, it is conclusive evidence, because it has now been ascertained that it is from Allâh, Most High. Therefore, it is also now a command of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ.
